“He looks so worn out,” Canelo Alvarez Fails to Impress Fans

Alvarez’s boxing career has been illustrious. He has an outstanding record of 59 wins out of 63 fights. His recent defeat happened in 2022 when Russian fighter Dmitry Bivol secured a unanimous decision victory against him. Nevertheless, Alvarez swiftly returned with a string of remarkable victories, solidifying his position as the favorite in his upcoming showdown against Charlo.

Even if Canelo wins the upcoming matchup, there’s a question about whether he will continue to experience the same level of adoration he’s become accustomed to. During a candid conversation about his upcoming fight, the fighter opened up about the intense training regimen he’s undergoing for his bout against Charlo. Canelo said, “I think it’s one my best camps I ever had and I’m glad to train my hundred percent now With my left hand now you see a little bit. That’s made me feel confident. Because when you 100 percent feel confident, when train knowing 100 percent, you in the fight is going to be like you know that you have that confidence every time right?”

He further said, ” But right now, I feel great, I feel like my 100 Percent, I feel like a beast.” He feels “hundred percent” but the fans? Not so much. One fan pointed out that the fighter looks worn out. Further predicting the fight in the younger Charlo brother’s favor, the user said, “He looks so worn out, he doesn’t have a hard workout like he used to. It doesn’t have the same condition as before. Charlo will beat him on points at the end of round 12”

However, questioning the “100%” claim of the fighter, a user deducted that he will not have any excuses when he faces injury against Charlo after having said that it was his best camp ever. The user commented, “100%? Got it. I. Guess this conditioning won’t be an excuse after the fight or injuries”

One fan was more into the improvement Canelo has shown in his people skills. Commending his prowess in the English language, the user said, “It’s great that he learned English to open his personality up to more fans.

A loyalist still stood by the pound-for-pound fighter. Predicting that on the 30th of September, Canelo will win either through KO or UD, the user said, “Canelo by stoppage or knockout i Dat simple”
